It was all he could see from all sides of him. The orange flames burned brightly engulfing his whole life right in front of him.

Dead.

The Phoenix Jeondang.

The indifferent statues stayed still the whole time as the boy’s body fell into the ashes.
They didn’t deserve to die. None of them did.
So why did they?
